Ubuntu ## release reviews are also common items in this section. ## For this and the next sections, see: ## https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions == In The Blogosphere == ## In this section we want to highlight the blogs that are exceptionally well-written and in-depth. ## Blogs tend to make it easy for low-quality content, so be extra careful on what goes here. ## We should encourage bloggers to spread the word, so this section might be a good way to do so. == In Other News == ## Any news or links that don't fit neatly into other sections. == Other Articles of Interest == ## Bullet-point list of articles that are more generic Linux articles in nature. == Featured Audio and Video == ## Ubuntu Podcast ## Ubuntu On Air sessions (testing days, etc.) == Weekly Ubuntu Development Team Meetings == ## Change date to reflect the latest meeting date and verify link then just remove the comment out marks ## * Desktop Team - June 30, 2017 - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/06/30/ubuntu-desktop-weekly-update-june-30-2017/ ## * OpenStack Team - June 27, 2017 - https://javacruft.wordpress.com/2017/06/27/ubuntu-openstack-development-summary-27th-june-2017/ ## * Foundations Team - August 1, 2017 - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/08/01/ubuntu-foundations-development-summary-august-1-2017/ ## * Kernel Team - August 2, 2017 - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/08/02/weekly-kernel-development-summary-aug-1-2017/ ## * Server Team - August 4, 2017 - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/08/04/ubuntu-server-development-summary-4-aug-2017/ ## * Security Team - August 7, 2017 - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/Security/20170807 == Upcoming Meetings and Events == For upcoming meetings and events please visit the calendars at fridge.ubuntu.com: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendars/ == Updates and Security for 14.04, 16.04, and 17.04 == === Security Updates === ## Run security-and-updates/ListSecurity.py YEAR MONTH === Ubuntu 14.04 Updates === ## Run security-and-updates/ListUpdates.py YEAR MONTH trusty End of Life - April 2019 === Ubuntu 16.04 Updates === ## Run security-and-updates/ListUpdates.py YEAR MONTH xenial End of Life - April 2021 === Ubuntu 17.04 Updates === ## Run security-and-updates/ListUpdates.py YEAR MONTH zesty End of Life - January 2018 == Subscribe == Get your copy of the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter delivered each week to you via email at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-news == Archives == You can always find older Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter issues at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter == Additional Ubuntu News == As always you can find more news and announcements at: http://insights.ubuntu.com/ and http://fridge.ubuntu.com/ == Conclusion == Thank you for reading the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter.
